Matthew 13

The same day went Jesus out of the house, and sat by the sea side.

taua ra i haere atu a Ihu i te whare, ka noho ki te taha o te moana.

And great multitudes were gathered together unto him, so that he went into a ship, and sat; and the whole multitude stood on the shore.

Na he rahi he hui i huihui ki a ia, a ka eke ia ki te kaipuke noho ai; i te takutai ano te hui katoa e tu ana.

And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;

A he maha ana korero ki a ratou, he mea whakarite; i mea ia, Na i haere te kairui ki te rui;

And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up:

A, i a ia e rui ana, ka ngahoro etahi o nga purapura ki te taha o te ara, a, ko te rerenga mai o nga manu, kainga ake:

Some fell upon stony places, where they had not much earth: and forthwith they sprung up, because they had no deepness of earth:

Ko etahi i ngahoro ki nga wahi kamaka, ki nga wahi kihai i nui te oneone: na pihi tonu ake, kahore hoki i hohonu te oneone:

And when the sun was up, they were scorched; and because they had no root, they withered away.

A, no te whitinga o te ra, ngaua iho; a, no te mea kahore he putake, memenge noa iho:

And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprung up, and choked them:

Ko etahi i ngahoro ki roto ki nga tataramoa; a, no te tupunga ake o nga tataramoa, kowaowaotia ana nga purapura:

But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

Ko etahi i ngahoro ki te oneone pai, a ka hua, no etahi kotahi rau, no etahi e ono tekau, no etahi e toru tekau.

Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Ki te whai taringa tetahi hei whakarongo, kia rongo ia.

And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?

A ka haere nga akonga, ka mea ki a ia, He aha koe i korero whakarite tonu ai ki a ratou?

He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.

Na, ka whakahoki ia ki a ratou, ka mea, No te mea kua hoatu ki a koutou te matauranga ki nga mea ngaro o te rangatiratanga o te rangi, ki a ratou ia kahore i hoatu.

For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath.

Ki te whai mea hoki tetahi, ka hoatu ano ki a ia, a ka maha atu ana: ki te kahore ia he mea a tetahi, ka tangohia i a ia ana ake.

Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.

Na reira enei kupu whakarite aku ki a ratou; no te mea kite rawa ratou, a kahore e kite; rongo rawa, kahore hoki e matau.

And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:

A ka rite i a ratou te poropititanga a Ihaia, e mea nei, Rongo noa koutou, kahore e matau; titiro noa koutou, kahore e kite:

For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

Kua matotoru hoki te ngakau o tenei iwi, kua puhoi nga taringa ki te whakarongo, ko nga kanohi kua oti te whakamoe e ratou; kei kite o ratou kanohi, kei rongo nga taringa, a ka matau te ngakau, na ka tahuri ratou a ka whakaorangia e ahau.

But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.

Ka koa ia o koutou kanohi, no te mea ka kite: o koutou taringa hoki, no te mea ka rongo.

For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

He pono hoki taku e mea nei ki a koutou, He tokomaha nga poropiti me nga tangata tika i hiahia kia kite i nga mea e kite nei koutou, a kahore i kite; kia rongo hoki i nga mea e rongo nei koutou, a kahore i rongo.

Hear ye therefore the parable of the sower.

Na whakarongo ki te kupu i whakaritea ki te kairui.

When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.

Ki te rongo tetahi ki te kupu o te rangatiratanga, a e kore e matau, na ka haere mai te wairua kino, ka kapo i te mea ka oti na te rui ki tona ngakau. Ko te tangata tenei i nga purapura i te taha o te ara.

But he that received the seed into stony places, the same is he that heareth the word, and anon with joy receiveth it;

Ko te tangata ia i nga purapura i nga wahi kohatu, ko te tangata i rongo ki te kupu, a hohoro tonu te tango, hari tonu;

Yet hath he not root in himself, but dureth for a while: for when tribulation or persecution ariseth because of the word, by and by he is offended.

Otiia kahore ona pakiaka i roto i a ia, e mau noa ana mo te wa poto: a, no te panga o te whakapawera, o te whakatoi ranei, mo te kupu, na he tonu iho.

He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

Ko te tangata i nga purapura i waenga tataramoa, ko te tangata tena i rongo ki te kupu; a, ko te whakaaronga ki tenei ao, me te hangaru o nga taonga, hei whakakowaowao i te kupu, a kore ake he hua.

But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.

Ko te tangata ia i nga purapura i te oneone pai, ko te tangata e rongo ana ki te kupu, a e matau ana; a ka whai hua, ea ake, no tetahi kotahi rau, no tetahi e ono tekau, no tetahi e toru tekau.

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

Tenei ake ano tetahi kupu whakarite i maka e ia ki a ratou, i mea ia, Ka rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki tetahi tangata i rui i te purapura pai ki tana mara:

But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

A, i nga tangata e moe ana, ka haere mai tona hoariri, ruia iho he taru kino ki waenga witi, a haere ana.

But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

A, no ka pihi ake te rau, ka hua, katahi ka kitea hoki nga taru.

So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

Na ka haere mai nga pononga a taua rangatira, ka mea ki a ia, E mara, kihai ianei koe i rui i te purapura pai ki tau mara? No hea ra ona taru?

He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

Na ka ki atu ia ki a ratou, Na te hoariri tenei i mea. Katahi ka mea nga pononga ki a ia, E pai ranei koe kia haere matou ki te whakawhaiti i aua taru?

But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

A ka mea ia, Kahore; kei hutia ngatahitia te witi ina whakawhaititia nga taru.

Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

Tukua kia tupu tahi, a taea noatia te kotinga; a i te wa o te kotinga ka mea ahau ki nga kaikokoti, Matua whakawhaiti i nga taru, ka paihere ai hei paihere kia tahuna; ko te witi ia me kohi ki toku whare witi.

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:

Tenei ake ano tetahi kupu whakarite i maka e ia ki a ratou, i mea ia, He rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te pua nani, i kawea e te tangata, i ruia ki tana mara:

Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.

He iti rawa ia i nga purapura katoa: a ka tupu, ko ia te nui rawa o nga otaota, a whakarakau ana, no ka rere mai nga manu o te rangi, ka noho ki ona manga.

Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.

Tenei ake ano tetahi kupu whakarite i korerotia e ia ki a ratou, He rite te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te rewena i tangohia e tetahi wahine, a whaongia ana ki roto ki nga mehua paraoa e toru, no ka rewenatia katoatia.

All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:

Ko enei mea katoa i korerotia e Ihu ki te mano, he mea whakarite; a heoi ano ana kupu ki a ratou he kupu whakarite anake:

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.

I rite ai ta te poropiti i korero ai, i mea ai, E puaki i toku mangai nga kupu whakarite; ka korerotia e ahau nga mea i ngaro no te timatanga ra ano o te ao.

Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

Katahi ka mahue i a Ihu te mano, ka tomo ia ki te whare: na ka haere mai ana akonga ki a ia, ka mea, Whakaaturia mai ki a matou te kupu i whakaritea ki nga taru i te mara.

He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

Na ka whakahoki ia, ka mea ki a ratou, Ko te kairui o te purapura pai ko te Tama a te tangata;

The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

Ko te mara ko te ao; ko te purapura pai ko nga tamariki o te rangatiratanga; nga taru ko nga tamariki a te kino;

The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

Ko te hoariri i ruia ai ko te rewera; te kotinga ko te mutunga o te ao; nga kaikokoti ko nga anahera.

As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

Na e huihuia ana nga taru, e tahuna ana ki te ahi; ka pera ano i te mutunga o tenei ao.

The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;

Ka tono te Tama a te tangata i ana anahera ki te huihui i roto i tona rangatiratanga i nga mea katoa e tutuki ai te waewae, i nga kaimahi ano i te kino;

And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

A ka maka e ratou ki roto ki te oumu ahi; ko te wahi tera o te tangi me te tetea o nga niho.

Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Ko reira te hunga tika whiti ai me te ra i te rangatiratanga o to ratou Matua. Ki te whai taringa tetahi hei whakarongo, kia rongo ia.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.

He rite ano te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te taonga i huna ki te mara; no te kitenga a tetahi tangata, na ka huna e ia, a haere ana, he koa hoki nona, na hokona ana ana mea katoa, a hokona ana mai taua mara mana.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:

He rite ano te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te kaihokohoko, e rapu ana i nga peara papai:

Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it.

A, no tona kitenga i tetahi peara utu nui, haere ana, hokona ana ana mea katoa, a hokona ana mai taua peara mana.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:

He rite ano te rangatiratanga o te rangi ki te kupenga i tukua ki te moana, a haoa ana he ika o ia ahua, o ia ahua:

Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.

A, ka ki, ka kumea ki uta, a noho ana, kohikohia ana nga ika papai ki nga kete, ko nga mea kikino ia i akiritia ki waho.

So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,

Ka pera ano a te mutunga o te ao: ka haere nga anahera, ka wehewehe i te hunga kino i roto i te hunga tika,

And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

A ka maka i a ratou ki roto ki te oumu ahi: ko te wahi tera o te tangi, o te tetea o nga niho.

Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.

Ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Kua matau ranei koutou ki enei mea katoa? Ka mea ratou ki a ia, Ae, e te Ariki.

Then said he unto them, Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old.

Na ka mea ia ki a ratou, Koia te karaipi, i akona ki te rangatiratanga o te rangi, i rite ai ki tetahi rangatira whare e whakaputa mai ana i nga mea hou, i nga mea tawhito, i roto i tana toa.

And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed thence.

A, ka mutu enei kupu whakarite a Ihu, ka haere atu ia i reira.

And when he was come into his own country, he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Whence hath this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?

A, ka tae ki tona kainga tupu, ka ako i a ratou i roto i to ratou whare karakia, a miharo noa ratou, ka mea, No hea enei whakaaro nui me nga merekara a tenei tangata?

Is not this the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas?

Ehara ianei tenei i te tama a te kamura? He teka ianei ko Meri te ingoa o tona whaea? Ko Hemi hoki ratou ko Hohepa, ko Haimona, ko Hura, ona teina?

And his sisters, are they not all with us? Whence then hath this man all these things?

Me ona tuahine, kahore ianei ratou katoa i a tatou nei? No hea ra enei mea katoa a tenei tangata?

And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, save in his own country, and in his own house.

Heoi ka he ratou ki a ia. Otira ka mea a Ihu ki a ratou, Kei tona kainga, kei tona whare anake te poropiti hapa ai i te honore.

And he did not many mighty works there because of their unbelief.

A kihai i maha nga merekara i meatia e ia ki reira, i to ratou whakaponokore hoki.
